Well today has seen heavy, heavy rain all day. It was supposed to clear up my early afternoon but it just kept pouring. We had planned to make this our first day on the slopes but there was no point as it would have been totally naff.
Unfortunately, it has warmed up and the rain is up to mid resort level. The lower slopes have taken a pounding and the resort valley suddenly looks brown and green and wet!!
We took H for a walk just before lunch and got soaked to the skin. Not very winter ski type weather at all.
We drove to Montchavan and Les Coches (20 mins from our pad). We can catch a bubble up into La Plagne from here. The place was deserted and dripping wet.
We then went to Meribel (40 mins from our pad). However, if we can park at the Olympic Bubble at Brides Les Bains, we can save ourselves 15 minutes. This bubble takes you up to Meribel in approx. 10 minutes.
As eveing approached the rain stopped and we say the eveing sun.

We are hoping the weather will cool back down soon. All the weather forecasts seem to think it will cool down tonight. Fingers crossed for some pleasant skiing tomorrow.
